COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2869/87

of 25 September 1987

amending Regulation No 225/67/EEC on detailed rules for determining the world market price for oil seeds

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of 22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1915/87 (2),

Having regard to Council Regulation No 115/67/EEC of 6 June 1967 laying down criteria for determining world market prices for oil seeds and fixing the frontier crossing point (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1983/82 (4), and in particular Article 7 thereof,

Whereas Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 225/67/EEC (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2284/86 (6), provides that, where the offers and quotations relate to a quality other than the standard quality for which the target price was fixed, they are to be adjusted on the basis of the coefficients of equivalence shown in the Annex; whereas world market prices have changed to an extent that calls for a fresh fixing at the coefficients of equivalence;

Whereas, by Regulation (EEC) No 1917/87 (7), the Council fixed, for the 1987/88 marketing year, the target price for sunflower seeds with a moisture content of 9 %; whereas the relevant coefficients of equivalence which are set out in the Annex to Regulation No 225/67/EEC and which have been fixed for sunflower seeds with a moisture content of 10 % should be adjusted for that marketing year;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
